Donald Trump cheers clinched GOP nomination with McDonald's feast

Trump celebrates delegate count with special meal

The Republican presidential nominee is lovin' it.

On Thursday, Donald Trump's penchant for celebratory food photos resurfaced again, when he cheered on his lockdown of the Republican nomination by chowing down on a McDonald's meal aboard his private jet.

He posted a snapshot on Instagram with the caption "Celebrating 1237!" -- a reference to the required number of delegates he recently earned to clinch the nomination.

Trump's love for McDonald's, on the other hand, is well-documented.

During a CNN town hall with the candidate in February, Trump called the fast food chain "great stuff."
